The Wheel is Forever
If I were to make a rating of 1-10. I'd put Chris Martin at 1, someone like Ganguly at 4, Laxman at 5, Dravid at 7, Ponting at 8, Tendulkar around 9, Bradman at 10. Of course, as SJS mentioned, you have guys like Hobbs and Sobers, who I'd consider better than Tendulkar but obviously not as good as Bradman, and I'm not sure how to rate them without going into fractions. I wouldn't want to make them a 9, because then if I make Tendulkar an 8, then we have some really good players at 7, and Dravid type guys at 6. 6 would be too low for Dravid IMO, because that's merely slightly above average.
On the other hand, I am thinking way too much about this.

I think people who rate him eight or nine are really rating him the same. Its just that some teacher's are stricter in their marking than others. Nine means the same to some as eight does to others.
Those who rate him at 1 are certainly not saying anything about Sachin. They are just being very frank about their personal strong dislikes and one has to at least admire them for being so open about their feelings.
But the person who rated him 5, that is a surprise, Wonder who he rates at six, seven, eight, nine and ten - if anyone

Fair enough. Both my sons would rate him the same as you
Of course, you probably should take into account ODI's, if not T20's. Based on that, Ganguly's rating would be higher, for instance.If I were to make a rating of 1-10. I'd put Chris Martin at 1, someone like Ganguly at 4, Laxman at 5, Dravid at 7, Ponting at 8, Tendulkar around 9, Bradman at 10.

For sure, though I for one won't be posting any "I hate Pommies" stuff for a while, just to be safe.
Am well aware of what he's done, he got a warning.. and if he did it again yea i guess fair enough
but this doesnt constitute a 2nd warning imo.. guess i should watch out how i answer polls next time

If you want to be sideshowtim's advocate, that's all well and good, but he made offensive comments all around the board and deserved to get banned.Am well aware of what he's done, he got a warning.. and if he did it again yea i guess fair enough

You just have to look at the India thread in the Olympic forum to realise that. Unless you condone such behaviour of course.

Obviously it wasn't how he answered the poll, but for how he finished the post. He was on a final warning as well for this exact sort of behaviour (not to mention being twice banned for it in the past) and was well aware of the consequences.Am well aware of what he's done, he got a warning.. and if he did it again yea i guess fair enough

Anyways, as I said, back on topic please.

I'd give Sachin a 7.5 on looks, 8 when he has a goatee.

That's getting kinda OTT isn't it?
Like he was condoning what was said in the other thread? He didn't even mention it and was plainly having a lend having read the posts on this thread. We're not getting to the point where someone makes a post like Laurrz's and we insinuate they're racist are we?
